VMS Help  —  PEEK  Watching  Node Names
   DECnet nodenames may be prefixed to the targets of a PEEK, SPY or
   WATCH command. Peek/Spy will attempt to watch the target on the
   specified DECnet node.

   A nodename may be prefixed to a process name parameter. For example:

     $ PEEK BOSTON::J_DOE.    ! Watch process J_DOE on node BOSTON.

   Nodenames may also be prefixed to process-id or terminal- or user-
   name target specifications. Examples:

   $ PEEK/IDENTIFIER=NODEA::124  ! Watch PID 124 on NODEA.
   $ SPY/TERMINAL=NODEA::LTA*    ! Watch all LTA terminals on NODEA.
   $ PEEK/USERNAME=NODEA::D*     ! Watch all users named D* on NODEA.

   Peek/Spy must be running on the target node, and the PEEK and SPY
   objects/applications must be defined for DECnet on the target
   nodes. See the top-level PEEK Subtopic: Node_Names Set-up.

   Standard VMS % and * wildcards can be used in nodenames providing
   PEEK has been configured to use wildcards in nodenames. See the
   top-level PEEK Subtopic: Node_Names Wildcards.

   Different nodenames can be prepended to each target specification
   in a list. A prepended nodename applies only to the one target
   specification in a list to which it is prepended. For example:

     $ PEEK BOSTON::J_DOE,PHOENIX::B_SMITH,M_JONES

   The above command causes PEEK to attempt to watch the process
   J_DOE on node BOSTON, then the process B_SMITH on node PHOENIX,
   and then the process M_JONES on the current node.
